@agonist okay so i'm not too familiar with powerscaling but i do have to ask: how do powerscalers deal with the powers given to video game characters via the fact that they're controlled by players? like frisk, for example, has in-universe immortality, as long as the player is determined enough to keep going.

@agonist similarly: how do you account for the fact that we haven't seen a Mario & Luigi fight where Mario and Luigi can't jump or hammer an issue away (assuming that there's no status effects involved)

@shroomie meta powers usually get ranked against each other, you see shit like “homestuck vs umineko” and such all the time

@agonist and so, with my other example, is mario and luigi's "ability" to jump or hammer out of any attack considered a 'meta power?'



also, i'm not super familiar with homestuck or umineko lol

@shroomie Mario can’t jump out of “any” attack, he can jump out of attacks equal or roughly equivalent to the stuff he jumps on in the game. so like. turtles. certain types of metal spike. bullets which is pretty strong
